1. Latin Club information for the 2020-2021 school year has been distributed to parents and students via email. Although it is impossible to say what sorts of activities will be feasible this year, we certainly hope to offer some sort of extracurricular program.
To sign up, students or parents should fill out the online form posted here. The sign-up deadline is September 15.
2. Two news items from the 2020 National Junior Classical League (Virtual) Convention, which took place over the summer:
(1) MUS alumnus Austin Chu was recognized for his many years of service to NJCL. Austin began attending these conventions when he attended MUS in the late 1990s and early 2000s, and he has never stopped. A tribute video is posted here.
(2) Congratulations to current MUS student Mark Hieatt for placing 4th on the Greek Language academic test. All NJCL contests - pandemic or no pandemic - are brutally competitive, so this is a noteworthy achievement.
